A visit to Art Basel Hong Kong.

Dear Diane, dear Shaded Viewers,

I'm happy to share with you my visit to the ABHK preview. The asian edition of this art fair is not as buzzy and busy as the american or european editions and although I'm starting to get sick of Anish Kapoor's parabols and loads of bad anstract painting, I have the pleasure to share with you some good stuff… To the moment my favorite booths are Societe, Isabela Bortolozzi and Neugerriemshchneider, all of them from Berlin.

Ah, and Leonardo Di Caprio was buying at Gagosian… I think he was interested in two Koons' paintings and he seemed anxious, like art addicted anxoius…

Best,

Mario Canal.
